Norman Osborn (also known as the Green Goblin ) is a fictional supervillain in the Marvel Comics, appearing as the main antagonist of the Spider-Man comics and a supporting antagonist in the Avengers series. He is the father of Harry Osborn and one of the main arch-enemies of Spider-Man .
After being cured of the Green Goblin, Norman tried to reconcile with his family these days; however, none are interested, which results his descent back to villainy.
In Amazing Spider-Man (2022), Norman seemingly feels remorse for everything he has done as the Goblin after being counted by the Sin Eater. Some still believe him to be manipulative, especially since Peter works under him.
